HTML5 - Correct way to use section element

I found this link recently, it's a pretty good article talks about the correct way to use section element.  Since there are so many developers have mistaken the usage of this element, and I think it worth a blog entry on that :)

In a nutshell, here is the basic rule of thumbs

  • Don’t use it just as hook for styling or scripting; that’s a div
  • Don’t use it if articleaside or nav is more appropriate
  • Don’t use it unless there is naturally a heading at the start of the section
